ATTACH THE LIGHT SOURCE TO ITS MOUNTING PLATE
Fit the metal mounting plate to the base of the light source before making electrical
connections.
Remove the mounting plate and the four M3 10mm screws from the box. Invert the light source
and remove the four screws securing the rubber feet.
Leaving the rubber feet in place, align the plate against the feet and secure the plate to the light
source with the four M3 10mm screws using an M3 pozidrive screwdriver.
Do not overtighten. The light source can now be fixed securely to the mounting surface.
The light source is powered from a 24V DC PSU/Constant Voltage SELV LED driver.
The driver caters for UK/European/other mains supplies using the relevant power cord
supplied.
POWER SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS
There are 2 connections required – the fibre port and the mains supply cable. The fibre port
should be connected first. Connect and secure the fibre optic connector into the collar and
secure using the M5 locking screw.
Connect the PSU to the DC input jack socket on the light source, and connect the IEC plug to the
PSU. Plug the mains plug into the electrical supply socket. Switch on power the led Indicator
will illuminate and the light source is ready for use. If no light is produced consult the
TROUBLESHOOTING section of this user guide.

UFO LIGHTING
There are 3 connections required – the fibre port, the mains supply cable and the DMX control
cable. The fibre port should be connected first. Connect and secure the fibre optic connector
into the collar and secure using the M5 locking screw.
Connect the PSU to the DC input jack socket on the light source, and connect the IEC plug to the
PSU. Plug the mains plug into the electrical supply socket. Switch on power the led Indicator
will illuminate and the light source is ready for use. If no light is produced consult the
TROUBLESHOOTING section of this user guide.
Connect the DMX control cables to the Mini-XLR sockets on the rear of the light source. The
recommended plug for these sockets is Multicomp SVP556-TA. The pin out details for the plugs
are shown below. Either socket may be used as DMX in or DMX out.
It is recommended that a 120ohm terminating resistor be connected across DMX+ and DMX- on
the last light source in the DMX universe or cable run.
CONNECTION - LUNA CDMX AND TDMX MODELS ONLY
Note: UFO can supply converters for these light sources to allow them to be interfaced to
standard 3 pin XLR connectors or RJ45 connectors.

The 0-10V control type needed in the Luna light source is current source, not current sink. The
unit relies on the control unit to supply the 0-10V control voltage.
There are three connections required - the fibre port, the mains supply cable and the 0-10V
control cable. The fibre port should be connected first. Connect and secure the fibre optic
connector into the collar and secure using the M5 locking screw.
Connect the PSU to the DC input jack socket on the light source, and connect the IEC plug to the
PSU. Plug the mains plug into the electrical supply socket. Switch on power the led Indicator
will illuminate and the light source is ready for use. If no light is produced consult the
TROUBLESHOOTING section of this user guide.
THE LIGHT SOURCE WILL NOT ILLUMINATE UNLESS DIP SWITCH 10 IS ON AND A 0-10V
SIGNAL IS PRESENT
Connect up the 0-10V control cable to the mini XLR sockets on the rear of the light source. The
recommended plug for these sockets is the Multicomp SVP556-TA. The pin out details for these
plugs are shown below. Either socket may be used as 0-10V IN or 0-10V OUT

UFO LIGHTING
USING THE LIGHT SOURCE - LUNA CM, MCM, TM AND MTM MODELS ONLY
The Luna CM & Luna TM has either manual control of the dimming or manual control of the
speed of the decorative wheel motor.
For a Luna CM or TM with only manual control of the decorative wheel - the motor speed can be
adjusted using the control on the rear of the unit from approximately 0.6 rpm to 3.75 rpm.
For a LunaCM or TM with only manual control of the light output – the output can be adjusted
using the control on the rear of the unit from no light output to maximum light output. In this
mode, the speed of the decorative motor is fixed, but controlled by a wire link between 10V and
SPD screw terminals on the PCB (see image on following page). With the link in place the speed is
fixed at 3.75 rpm. With the link removed the speed is fixed at 0.6 rpm.

NOTES ON POWERING UP THE LUNA CDMX LIGHT SOURCE
To revert a DMX only light source to normal manual operation of the wheel and the light output,
remove top cover to access the dip switch on the PCB. Set switches 1 to 9 o and switch 10 on, as
detailed below. You must also ensure that the wire links are fitted as detailed below.
REVERTING A DMX LIGHT SOURCE TO MANUAL OPERATION MODE
1. If internal DIP switch 10 is OFF, the wheel will find its reference point and stop on colour 1 (white).
2. If internal DIP switch 10 is ON, the wheel will find its reference point then rotate continuously
counter clockwise at 7.5 rpm. If internal DIP switch 10 is then switched OFF without powering down
the wheel will continue rotating until power is recycled. The wheel will then revert to the status
detailed in 1. above.
LUNA TDMX TWINKLE WHEEL
Dip switch 10 must be on
for manual operation
For manual operation to work there
must be wire links fitted to the screw
terminals on the PCB between 10V &
DM and 10V & SPD as detailed,
